Case¶
To give an impression on how the remote could look like a 3d casing was designed. The files can be found under 3d-designs in the root folder, here the openscad files and stls are stored to remake the case, the settings for printing can be found in the next paragraph.
Design¶
The design was made in openscad no standard settings were changed.
3D printer settings¶
The lid was printed with Mixed quality on an Creality Ender 3 Pro and the case was also printed on the same printer but with regular settings, changed from the normal settings were the following:
- infill 20%
- type skirt as buildplate adhesion
Pictures¶
Improvements¶
Requirements¶
The following requirements were gathered after the first forementioned prototype case.
- Rounder to be more ergonomic
- Better looking design; e.g. not a straight angled box
- Be able to be sticked on a cane
Casing design¶
A new design was made in fusion 360 allowing more detailed design due to easier tools and gui. This program was found after doing some research on the internet and the recommendation of a fellow class member because the author found the original program OpenScad not sufficient for making detailed high quality designs. The following design was realized with this program:
Printing¶
The prototype was also printed but failed the first time due to the lack of supports.
The next print with supports was sucessfull and resulted in the following design after some scraping to remove the supports, (print settings otherwise were the same as in the beginning besides adding supports).
